Talk show host Oprah Winfrey has continued her streak of generosity by
hosting a gigantic baby shower for the pregnant wives of 640 American
soldiers.

The billionaire, who gave away $7 million (GBP3.8 million) worth of cars
to all 276 members of her studio audience last week (ends17SEP04), visited
Kentucky's Fort Campbell earlier this week (ends24SEP04) with gifts for the
spouses of troops in
the 101st Airbone Division.

The 101st returned to America earlier this year (04), following a 12-month
deployment.

Winfrey says, "It's a way of honouring the sacrifice without doing a lot
of big speeches and oh la la la la. It's a way of saying, 'We see you. We hear
you. We know what you do to make our lives safer, and we thank you for it.'"
